Microsoft MVP

MVP is Microsoft-ese for "Most Valuable
Professional" and represents someone who has contributed much
valuable information on these newsgroups. That person may or may not be a
computer professional. That person is an experienced user of Word and has
helped many others use Word. These people are all
volunteers and do not work for Microsoft. In my opinion, collectively this
group of people knows more about Word than do Microsoft support personnel. The designation of MVP, though,
comes from Microsoft and represents a Microsoft judgment. A website listing
the Word MVPs as well as MVPs in many other categories is at:

This designation is applied to human beings who are
sometimes wrong. There are other volunteers online who also contribute and
are often right but do not have that designation. I like to think of myself
as one of those.
